Kevin Durant popped the question to a former WNBA player more than 10 years ago, but now, he does not see marriage in his future at all.
The NBA superstar, now on the Houston Rockets, was engaged to Monica Wright in 2013, but they called off the wedding shortly after.
In a recent appearance on Bobbi Althoff’s “Not This Again” podcast, the 2013-14 NBA MVP said he does not want to get married.
“When I go to a wedding, it’s like, ‘Oh, this is cool, oh this is dope.’ It’s not like it needs to happen in my mind. But it’s still a cool event, don’t get me wrong.”
Durant didn’t rule out marriage totally, but said “I’m not expecting it.”
Durant said he does want to find someone he “can hang out with every day, somebody I can talk to that’s cool, you know the basics, somebody I can really be friends with.” But he wants to avoid a label.
“That expectation, that title, it’s that cloud that comes with that instead of us just being natural friends. No expectations is better for me because sometimes I might not want to talk to you or see you,” he said.
Durant is in his 18th season, not including the 2019-20 season he missed due to a torn Achilles.
